Product details
Overview
THS4031ID from Texas Instruments is a single-channel, ultra-low-noise (1.2nV/√Hz), high-speed voltage-feedback operational amplifier optimized for precision signal conditioning in wideband, low-distortion applications. It delivers 100MHz bandwidth at G = 2, 100V/μs slew rate, –96dBc THD at 1MHz (RL = 1kΩ), ±13.6V output swing, and features dedicated offset nulling pins (1 & 8) for fine-tuning in high-accuracy DAQ and ADC driver circuits.
For engineers reviewing the THS4031ID datasheet, THS4031ID pinout, THS4031ID application, or THS4031ID equivalent, this page provides verified specifications, SOIC-8 and HVSSOP-8 package details, real-world use cases in SAR ADC buffering and ultrasound front-ends, and two validated alternative op-amps with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The THS4031ID employs a complementary bipolar 30V process with GHz fT transistors, enabling voltage-feedback architecture with unity-gain stability (120MHz bandwidth) and 70ns 0.1% settling time. Its internal compensation prioritizes bandwidth and slew rate but requires external isolation resistors (>20Ω) when driving capacitive loads >10pF to maintain phase margin.
It operates from ±4.5V to ±16V dual supplies (or 9–32V single supply), supports rail-to-rail input common-mode range (±14.3V at ±15V), and integrates offset nulling capability via pins 1 and 8-unique among the THS403x family and absent in the dual-channel THS4032.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bandwidth (–3dB) | 100MHz at G = 2; enables faithful amplification of signals up to video and ultrasound baseband frequencies without attenuation. |
| Slew Rate | 100V/μs; supports clean reproduction of fast transient signals (e.g., 20V step in 200ns) without slewing distortion. |
| Voltage Noise | 1.2nV/√Hz (f > 10kHz); critical for preserving SNR in low-level sensor interfaces and high-resolution ADC drivers. |
| THD @ 1MHz | –96dBc (RL = 1kΩ); ensures minimal harmonic contamination in precision analog signal chains like DAQ systems. |
| Output Drive | 200mA (typical); drives heavy loads including 150Ω video lines or capacitive ADC inputs without gain compression. |
| Input Offset Voltage | 0.3mV (typical); reduces DC error in closed-loop configurations; adjustable to near-zero via external potentiometer on pins 1/8. |
| Supply Range | ±4.5V to ±16V; accommodates industrial ±5V, ±12V, and ±15V rails while maintaining full dynamic range. |
Pinout & Package
THS4031ID is available in two surface-mount packages: 8-pin SOIC (D package, 4.9mm × 6mm) and 8-pin HVSSOP (DGN package, 3.0mm × 4.9mm), both with exposed thermal pad (HVSSOP only). Pin functions are identical across packages.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8 NULL | Offset null adjust input | Connect external 10kΩ potentiometer wiper to VCC– to actively trim input offset voltage - unique to THS4031ID. |
| 2 IN– | Inverting input | Differential input node; used in inverting gain configurations and feedback networks. |
| 3 IN+ | Noninverting input | Differential input node; accepts high-impedance signal sources with 2MΩ input resistance. |
| 4 VCC– | Negative power supply | Reference for internal biasing; must be stable and low-noise; connects to ground in single-supply operation. |
| 5 NC | No connection | Internally unconnected; leave floating or tie to ground per layout best practices to reduce noise coupling. |
| 6 OUT | Amplifier output | Capable of ±13.6V swing into 1kΩ; requires series resistor ≥20Ω when driving >10pF capacitance. |
| 7 VCC+ | Positive power supply | Reference for internal biasing; decouple with 0.1μF ceramic capacitor close to pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low voltage noise | 1.2nV/√Hz enables high-fidelity amplification of microvolt-level sensor outputs without degrading system SNR. |
| Offset nulling capability | Pins 1 & 8 allow sub-100μV offset correction - essential for DC-coupled precision instrumentation and calibration circuits. |
| High slew rate + bandwidth | 100V/μs + 100MHz allows simultaneous handling of large-signal transients and wideband content (e.g., ultrasound pulses). |
| Low THD into high-Z load | –96dBc @ 1MHz, RL = 1kΩ minimizes harmonic artifacts in audio, spectrum analysis, and RF sampling front-ends. |
| Robust output drive | 200mA output current supports direct driving of coaxial cables, ADC reference buffers, and active filter stages. |
Applications

Use Scenario: Implementing high-Q, low-drift Sallen-Key and multiple-feedback active filters in test equipment and communications receivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stable, low-noise gain element in 2nd-order low-pass topologies; bandwidth ~10× filter cutoff for linear phase response. Use Value: Unity-gain stability (120MHz) and low input capacitance (1.5pF) prevent peaking and preserve filter transfer function accuracy up to 10MHz. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed, low-noise op-amp applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OPA656IDBVR | Lower noise (0.95nV/√Hz), lower bandwidth (500MHz), no offset null pins, higher supply current (12.5mA). | Better for RF/IF gain stages requiring >200MHz small-signal BW; unsuitable where active offset trimming is required. | Select OPA656IDBVR when absolute lowest noise dominates and offset drift is managed digitally or via calibration. |
| LMH6629MA/NOPB | Higher noise (1.9nV/√Hz), same bandwidth (100MHz), no offset null, higher slew rate (1300V/μs), wider supply (±2.5V to ±6V). | Better for ultra-fast pulse amplification (e.g., LIDAR); incompatible with ±15V industrial rails due to 12V max supply. | Select LMH6629MA/NOPB only for low-voltage, high-slew applications where noise penalty is acceptable and offset adjustment is unnecessary. |
Compared with OPA656IDBVR and LMH6629MA/NOPB, THS4031ID uniquely balances ultra-low noise, 100MHz bandwidth, ±16V operation, and hardware-adjustable offset - making it the only choice among the three for ±15V DAQ systems requiring sub-mV DC accuracy and wideband fidelity.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for THS4031ID?
The THS4031ID supports dual-supply operation from ±4.5V to ±16V (32V total), with absolute maximum rating of ±16.5V. Exceeding ±16V risks permanent damage per Section 5.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings. For single-supply use, the device operates from 9V to 32V, with VCC– tied to ground.
Does THS4031ID require external compensation for stability?
No - THS4031ID is internally compensated and unity-gain stable (120MHz bandwidth). However, when driving capacitive loads >10pF, an external series isolation resistor (≥20Ω) must be placed between the OUT pin and the load to prevent phase-margin degradation and potential oscillation, as specified in Section 7.1.1.
How do I use the NULL pins (1 and 8) on THS4031ID?
Connect a 10kΩ potentiometer between pins 1 and 8, with its wiper tied to VCC– (negative supply). Adjusting the potentiometer changes the internal bias current balance, allowing manual reduction of input offset voltage to <100μV - a feature exclusive to THS4031ID and not present on THS4032.
What is the typical THD performance of THS4031ID at 1MHz?
THS4031ID achieves –96dBc total harmonic distortion at 1MHz with G = 2, RL = 1kΩ, and VO(pp) = 2V (Section 5.7). This value improves to –81dBc under heavier 150Ω loading, reflecting its optimized drive capability for video and cable applications.
Can THS4031ID drive a 75Ω video line directly?
Yes - THS4031ID delivers 200mA output current and ±13.6V swing into 1kΩ, enabling direct 75Ω driving when configured with appropriate gain and series termination. Data Sheet Section 5.6 confirms 0.015% differential gain and 0.025° phase error at ±15V, meeting NTSC/PAL broadcast requirements.
